I'm getting 5:1 to complete with a passive BB.

What are you talking about? The blinds are 1/3 and you are getting 7:2 = 3.5:1 which is not close to 5:1. Then there is the rake, I'm not sure at what point Party rakes the 3/6 games but I'm sure it doesn't make the situation any better.

Very easy preflop fold, especially with the 3/6 structure.

I don't think preflop is terrible

I do fold here but I will complete with 2 limpers. And I do think Q5s+ is playable here as someone else was saying.

the rest of the hand is perfect, call his bluff on the river.

I can't see him not raising you on the turn with a King. His play is consistent with a hand like A7, or a flush draw. As wheelz said, check to induce a bluff from a busted draw, and call.

I don't see how people think this pre-flop limp is an ok play, especially with the 3/6 blind structure. When you don't play hands like this, you don't end up in sticky situations.

Yeah, 1/3 blind structure = fold. Mental lapse on my part.
